Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The NIH Comparative Effectiveness Research Coordinating Committee (CER CC) was established in 2008 at the request of the NIH Director. Its members include NIH Institute and Center (IC) Directors and high level senior staff. Its charge is to coordinate ongoing CER initiatives across the agency, develop a long term research vision for CER, implement collaborative initiatives with sister agencies, determine appropriate definitions, policies and guidance relative to CER, administer the CER funds awarded through ARRA, and track the outcomes of those projects. The CER CC has organized meetings with AHRQ, CMS, the VA, FDA, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), and PCORI, to discuss potential strategic collaborations. NIH invested $597M in CER in FY2012, and estimates funding $581M in FY 2013. |
